Heat and Mass Transfer Volume 2

Abstract

Heat and Mass Transfer Volume 2 is a textbook specifically developed for chemical engineering students in Malaysian polytechnics. This volume focuses on three key areas: radiation heat transfer, heat exchangers, and mass transfer. The book introduces fundamental theories such as blackbody radiation, Planck’s and Stefan–Boltzmann laws, and Fick’s law of diffusion, presenting them in a simplified manner with clear illustrations and practical examples.

Designed to align with the official polytechnic syllabus, the text guides students through the principles of steady-state heat transfer mechanisms and their applications in real-world engineering problems. It emphasizes conceptual clarity and problem-solving skills, supported by exercises that reinforce learning. The book also highlights the interrelation between mass, heat, and momentum transfer, providing a comprehensive understanding suitable for diploma-level coursework.
